a condition that affects expectant mothers, usually during the first and third trimesters. sometimes known as placenta brain or baby brain drain, the condition is usually characterized by short-term memory loss or forgetfullness.
i didn't believe them when they said it would happen. but there i stood, switching the damp dark load from the washer to the dryer. i opened the cabinet above the washing machine, reached for a bounce dyer sheet, threw it into the dryer, shut the door, and started the drying cycle. next, i began loading the unwashed white load into the washing machine. i closed the door to the washer and reached once more to the cabinet for laundry detergent, and that's when i realized... i had forgotten to put laundry detergent into the previous load. you know, the damp dark load that was now spinning around and around in the dryer. ugh. for a moment all i could think was, i can't believe i just let clothes spin around in water for 30-some-odd minutes... what a waste! and then i decided to just chalk it up to 'pregnancy brain' and laugh at myself instead. and yes, i did re-wash the un-soaped load.
